Seedling getting too much light?
pinkdragonstarted grow question 4 years ago
Is my 6cm tall seedling getting too much light? I downloaded a luxmeter app and for front/back cameras, it reads 4000-6000 lux. I'm worried about the light green veins. Is this normal? First grow so super unsure what everything is supposed to look like. Light is 18cm from plant.

Hey
So looking at photo 5, having a seedling this young that's 6 inches tall...is stretching for light. Versus excessive light. I usually raise these itty bitty babies under a couple cfl twisty bulbs(low heat and can be 4 inch from the plant).
I think the mars light is going to be better in the end.
Right now id just be mindful of watering practice (over or under), and keeping the room as comfortable as can be. If it's decent soil you should only need to give it water right now and survive.
Ive had some bright growth on young veg plants and it be totally normal, watch for cupping leaves, burning leaves, etc. And maybe support the seedling if it wants to tip over.
When the mars comes definitely keep it like 30 inches away at first and then slowly adjust.
Happy growing. ✌️

your new seedling is looking good, dont stress, things are normal and just keep doing what your doing, remember not to over water and this little one will be a healthy plant at 4 weeks

In my opinion is good, if the readings are correct lux are quite perfect for seedlings that needs nearly 6500lux

Slight Leaf Discoloration. Early zinc deficiency?Girl showing slight discoloration on newer leaves. Mostly interveinal + little on the tips. Guessing it's an early zinc def. but would like another opinion. Watering sparingly at ph 6.3 - 6.5. No runoff yet, so ph may be higher in soil. Lower ph and watering til runoff next time?

Strange discolorationThe plant is becoming less green, more yellow, dark green/blue, and the tip seems necrotic. She received a little more light intensity (TS1000 at 50cm, 25%dim to 50%dim) when she was repotted on the final DWC. T.A. (Growing on FeedChart) was used to create the nutrient solution.

Upper leaves are yellow and not smoothI noticed leaves on top are closing and today are yellowish. Older plant aren’t stretching more, I thought it’s too much light or too hot but it’s kinda weird because light are at 40cm from longer plant and 50 from smaller, temperature are max 26C. So, it’s normal?

Please help identify my Problem: Yellowing leaves with veins showing and some necrosis spots in third week of flowerThe odd thing is that only some leaves in the middle of the plant are affected. My thoughts were Nitrogen or Manganese deficiency or maybe light burn (why in the mid of the plant tho?)? I feed Biobizz Bloom, Grow and TopMax, no Problems until now.

Is this an Iron deficiency? The tops and new growth look too yellow and the veins are yellowing with a darker green in betweenHaven't fed much with nutes, when I did it's been low doses. I'm trying not to burn one for once. Not sure if its a deficiency or other problem or if I'm just worrying too much, looks off to me though. My problem with overwatering might be contributing.

Is it time to feed nutrients now or can I wait?I have not given any nutrients yet but I'm wondering if I should.
1. Are these really signs of nutrient deficiencies?
2. Which nutrients are missing?
2.1. My guess is P, N and/or Mag, Cal. Is that a good guess?
3. Is BioGrow a good choice to address these deficiencies now?

Does that look like an early deficiency?Hi everyone, what ya thinkin'
What kind of deficiency could that be?
My bet - potassium.
last portion of water was ~6.2 pH
I wasn't feeding her nutes for ten days by now.
Because previous runoff was ~2000 ppm. I thought would be a good idea to do just water for a while.

Blue Dream Autos with Downturned Leaf Tips23 days old. One started showing downturned leaf tips on new growth; others followed. Looks off-color, at least one is in early bloom. They’re in coco, 3-gal pots, 480W QB at 50cm, 2.2 EC daily, no pH check. Problems started after adjusting watering for larger plants. Any tips?

Leave color normal?? [First timer]I am not sure about the color of the leaves if they look normal? The baby leaf seems to be turning a bit yellow. The rest of the leaves seem to be a bit discolored as you can see in the pictures but mainly green though. Is this alright or am I doing something wrong here?

Possible light stress?Any help would be much appreciated, so the leaves are looking with a yellow tinge , my thoughts were light stress as had lights on 24/7 on to high and to close I have since then back off on the power of the lights and move them further away from the plants and changed to 20/4.
